yea somethings up with your rig from what i can see ppl with similar GPUs are getting about 5-6fps more than you in SLeeping dogs then again you shouldnt be running extreme mode anyway since you wont have enough Vram for it to begin with since extreme mode forces SSAA drop AA to either Normal or High game will run a hell of a lot better

screw up #1 with Metro is using 4xAA

as for you brandon again turn off AA turn off Depth of Field which in Metro 2033 is a Direct Compute filter, it looks like shit and cuts performance in half lol

Is there anyway to run the Crysis benchmark. I remember a long time ago there were batch files present for CPU and GPU configs. I got the steam version of Crysis wars and cant find them anymore -_-

Non of those programs (like HOC's Crysis Benchmark tool and other variations work). Is there any console command possible? I do see some benchmark CPU/GPU config files.

Six core Phenom II would be nice, but the main problem Im facing right now are the real expensive and rare DDR2 memory sticks. (Also Phenoms are hard to find here). With the new setup, I plan to get 16GB right away, for that price, I could probably get 2-4GB more with DDR2.

heres the kicker 3870x2 in Metro 2033 at his resolution the 6850 should be slightly faster than the 5850

and since the 5770 = 4870 well the numbers dont really lie

if turn 4xAA off stick with post process AA instead aka AAA or w.e his FPS should be far higher than what his 4870 is pulling in if the OP is still trying to force 4xAA then that is why 4xAA was possible on dual card configs of the era a singly 6850 aint gonna cut it either

Metro 2033 isnt as CPU dependent since they actually coded well where as Sleeping dogs performane WILL be impacted

nearly 40% more pixels drop your res down to 1366 x 768 then cut off 10% give or take that will tell us what he should be getting

this panel doesn't go that low but I have a 6870 he has a 6850 so that should compensate for the difference in pixels either way lol
with his cpu and being that its DDR2 those frame-rates don't surprise me at all

The X6 series is on par performance wise with the FX 8150 (http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/203?vs=434) and better than the trinity?? I think Ill just for a DDR2 + Phenom II X6 upgrade then, instead of switching the whole system. On stock speeds, the X6 1100T is somewhat similar to the i5 2500. A little far back actually.
